.SYNOPSIS...High pressure will build E and SE toward the northern
and central waters today through Mon while a low pressure trough
persists along the California coast. The high pressure will then
weaken and shift to SW of the southern waters Mon night into Tue
night while the coastal trough weakens. Low pressure will form
over the far northern waters by Tue and move SE to near Point
Reyes and dissipate Tue night while pulling a weak cold front
over the northern and central waters. The front will return NE as
a warm front in advance of low pressure that will approach the NW
portion Wed and Wed night. The low will push an occluded front
and cold front into the NW waters Wed night.
